Hello,
I spend some time installing rvm, however, my cmd does simply not find "rvm" as a command.
I used the code from rvm.io: curl -L https://get.rvm.io | bash -s stable --ruby
This is my output: % Total % Received % Xferd Average Speed Time Time Time Current Dload Upload Total Spent Left Speed 0 10648 0 0 0 0 0 0 --:--:-- 0:00:04 --:--:-- -152BA SH 3.2.25 required (you have 3.1.17(1)-release) 100 10648 100 10648 0 0 2482 0 0:00:04 0:00:04 --:--:-- 7890
I cannot find any .bash_profiles and so on as suggested in the video's either. Can anybody help me out and or at least give me hints on how to fix it?

What's your goal here? What OS are you using?
Is your goal perchance to install rails, if so just use RailsInstaller
rvm is used on OS X because, OS X ships with whatever version of ruby is current at that time.
A lot of mac users like to use one-click installers for rails, which install whatever version of Ruby is current when the installer was made, thus a version conflict and using rvm.

2,200 PointsThank you for the information, I was confused because I wanted to make sure to have all updates and patches and panicked that I have to update and check all the updates. No wonder that it didn't work, I am using windows.

Treehouse Guest TeacherTry using the RailsInstaller download for Windows. That should fix everything :)

But it's not installed by default on Windows.
